I live in St. Albert,Alberta moved here from
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia in Dec.2001 as my
significant other George is in the Air Force
here. My two daughters and four grandchildren are back home in N.S. so I miss home very much,if there are any other
Nova Scotians out there,I would love to hear
from you. For fun I love Garage Sales,Flea Markets,collecting dishes,shopping,going out
to a nice restaurant for dinner. Don't have
a favorite cookbook,just love looking @ all
recipes & finding ones that sound good enough to try. Love animals,we have two cats. If I had a month off I would go visit
my family and would love to go to Europe,so I guess a month wouldn't be enough unless I could take my family to Europe with me. Guess I'll just have to win the lottery!!!
